M: Am I required to pay property taxes in two towns if my house is in one town and the back of my yard is in another?


Yes. But the taxes paid should be related only the the portion of property in each jurisdiction. In other words, the town in which the house is located should tax you for the land and house which is in it's jurisdiction, and the town in which the portion of backyard is located should only tax you for the portion of land within their jurisdiction.
